I went here with a group of my girlfriends for our galentines and it was absolutely perfect. All of the staff we interacted with just so friendly and helpful. They were attentive to allergies and gave us all the GF options! It was an amazing first experience, and we will definitely be back again!

Wonderful and personal experience at Lindeys! The food was absolutely fantastic and the staff was so friendly, especially to our kiddos. We got the calamari, ahi tuna, bread, and highlight for me was the burger. The kids meal portions were also very generous! Certainly a great place to celebrate a special occasion!
